SCCM OSD Dell Precision T3600 for WinXP x64

Question

Hello all,

i trying to deploy our new T3600 workstations with sccm and have the problem with the WinXP mini-setup hang after the first reboot in the task sequence.

Have anybody an idea what driver causing this problem?

Thanks you for your help

Cheers,

I haven't heard of a hang issue on the T3600.  I would check for a HAL conflict first.  Then look at drivers second.

If you can capture the stop error, then that will help point you in the right direction. If you are getting a stop error (bluescreen) it is most likely something other than the HAL. When I've seen HAL issues, they typically were a black screen hang which occurred at the first OS boot or during mini-setup.

There are several HAL switching scripts available that people use in the deployment processes to address this. But ensure that you are not receiving a stop error that would indicate a driver issue before putting time into a HAL switching script.

Thanks,

Warren

There is no STOP error. It hangs without errors at Mini-SetupScreen.

OK.  That sounds like a HAL issue.  Below is an excellent article on HAL switching during OS Deployment.  See if that helps. www.myitforum.com/.../view.asp
